indicator-multiload autostart does not work

[blaamann]

Indicator-multiload does not autostart after ticking Preferences | autostart [ x ].

Starting indicator-multiload from terminal gives me an error message telling me it can't create an autostart desktop file (see below).

a@Aspire-4810T:~$ indicator-multiload
/usr/share/indicator-multiload/preferences.ui
Could not create autostart desktop file: Failed to create file '/home/rata/.config/autostart/indicator-multiload.desktop.WQ4GCW': No such file or directory
